Happy Memorial Day!! Quiet weekend on the Street With No Name. We have packed the car for a trip to Madison and Odana Antiques this week. We have had strong sales and need to restock and freshen the booth. Treasures include a 1900s point of purchase display stand from the American Hoe Company and a terrific inlaid table with the date 1912 in the intricate design.
Ebay is calling my name--and I have listed a few things including vintage medicine bottles and an English needlepoint and inlaid slipper stool. Needlework seems to be hot hot hot right now on ebay--and I still have several pieces to list. In the shops--needlework can sit for months without moving.
Since it is almost 100 degrees today--what a great day to make oven baked bbq ribs and Dear Husbola's favorite rhubarb pie. After all--the kitchen is already hot--what is a little hotter?
I love the Rhubarb Custard Pie Recipe from my Grandmother's vintage Betty Crocker Cookbook. Pillsbury dough sure makes it easy.
Rhubarb Custard Pie- Circa 1950 400 degrees 45 minutes
Do not prebake lower crust. Everything goes raw into the hot oven
Filling--4 cups raw sliced rhubarb
1 1/2 cups sugar
1/4 cup flour
dash salt
1/2 teas cinnamon (says nutmeg but we prefer cinnamon)
3 beaten eggs
Top with crust. Egg white wash and sprinkle sugar. Make a few slits.
YUMMY YUMMY YUMMY.
Enjoy your holiday.
